ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Complications and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) of total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with Legg-Calve-Perthes disease (LCPD) have demonstrated variable results. The purpose of this study was to use a validated grading scheme to analyze complications associated with THA in patients with residual LCPD deformities. Second, we report PROs and intermediate-term survivorship in this patient population.METHODS:
A retrospective, single-center review was performed on 61 hips in 61 patients who underwent THA for residual Perthes disease. Average patient age was 42 years and 26% of hips had previous surgery. Complications were determined and categorized using a validated grading scheme that included five grades based on the treatment required to manage the complication and on persistent disability. PROs were compared from preoperative to most recent follow-up time points.RESULTS:
Major complications (grade III) occurred in three patients (5%) which each required a second surgical intervention. The most common minor grade I or II complications (11.5%) were asymptomatic heterotopic ossification (3.3%). Patients were lengthened on the surgical side an average of 1.4 cm with no nerve palsies. All patient PROs improved from preoperative to postoperative time points with the modified Harris Hip Score improving from 46.9 preoperatively to 85.4 postoperatively (P < .01). Patients free from revision for any reason at final follow-up (5.6 years; range 2-13 years) was 98.4% with one patient needing a revision of their femoral component.CONCLUSIONS:
THA for the sequelae of the LCPD has an acceptable complication rate and provides excellent patient reported outcomes at mid-term follow-up.Palabras clave
